Sue started working at King Edward Referrals as receptionist and practice administrator in 2008 when we first opened. Since then, the scope of her work has broadened (a little) to include just about everything. Prior to 2008, Sue was employed in the banking and travel industries. 

Mrs Michele Nickisson

Michele started working at King Edward Referrals in 2013 having been a client for several years before that with her Jack Russell Terrier Jodie, who has a rare endocrine problem.

Michele comes to us with a broad range of experience gained from working at one of the well known vetshops in PE, running her own gym and working in the travel industry. She is a whizz with admin and has taken over much of the lab work.

Carmen

Carmen is a spayed female Canis africanus (township dog) and was probably born around January 2008.

She moved here from the Animal Welfare Society in June 2008 - to be in charge of security. This was after some gentlemen tried to steal the copper pipes from the side of the practice one night.

Carmen is very happy to meet every new patient and owner. Her other favourite occupation is encouraging in-patients to enjoy the garden with her.

Levi

Levi (Donnehaus Levi Five O One) is a spayed female Dobermann and was born on 1 Sept 2006.

She lives here on long-term loan from Donné Lucas of Donnehaus and Chaldonne kennels to keep Carmen on the straight and narrow. 

Running on the beach is about as essential to her life as breathing.
